White Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
These white pizza grilled cheese sandwiches have a great pizza-ish herby flavor to them, with ooey-gooey melted mozzarella and a little Parmesan to boot. Very good, and a little different.

Equipment
- Cuisinart Griddler or skillet
Ingredients
- ½ cup ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried basil crumbled
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano crumbled
- ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
- Pinch ground black pepper
- ¼ cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese shredded
- 12 slices bread I used Texas Toast
- 2 tablespoons butter softened
Instructions
- Turn on your Griddler to the griddle setting and 350 F, or heat a large skillet over medium heat.
- Mix the ricotta and oil together in a large bowl.
- Stir in the garlic, basil, oregano, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese.
- Mix in the mozzarella cheese. The mixture will be thick. Don't be afraid to use your hands to mix it well.
- Lightly butter each slice of bread on one side.
- Working in batches, place slices of bread butter-side down on the Griddler or into the skillet. Top with the cheese mixture, spreading out evenly.
- Add the top piece of bread butter-side up.
- Cook until the bottom bread is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Notes
Use thick bread for the best results.
